also in means for stirring the liquid, so as to keep it in proper condition.

A typica embodiment of my invention has been shown in the' accompanying drawings,

in "VhChf Figure lis a sectional elevation of myvim- Fig. 2 is a top view. Fig.v 3 is a' detail section of the -atomizing-nozzle, and Fig.4is. a perspectiveA r \ew of anotherform of atoinizing-nozzle. v

The-device comprises a salti ble receptacle A, which may be of any appro ed shape and which is'provided with a handle B, enabling it to be readily'carriedfrom place to place.A

vThe receptacle 'is provided Awith a top C,

which may be held down in any suitableAA Way-as, for instance, by means rof nuts D, screwing onbolts E, which are hinged tothe receptacle A near the top and are adapted to be swung into slotted lugs C of the cover i The ,cover is also provided with an opening through which the paint or other liquid mayV be filled into the receptacle, said-opening be- 1 ing normally closed by a plug F. The cover carries two brackets C2, in which is received' adjustably the air-tube G,held in-position after adjustment by means of set-screws C3. This air-tube preferably extends alongthe.` diameter of the top or cover C andi-is provided ,with a nozzle Gf, which is adjustable'len thwise, as by means of ascrew connection. .he other end of the tube G is connected with a 'source of compressed air, and at some suit able point a cock or other regulating'device is interposed, so that the jet of air, delivered at the nozzle G may be regulated ordiscontinued altogether, if desired.- In the particu lar instance shown the end of the tube G o posite to the nozzle G screws into a pipe which extends through the handle B and is provided with a regulating-cock II. A n 'ut serves to lock the tube G relatively to the pipe HL Adj acent 'to A 'paint-nozzle I, Which-is inade of a peculiar shape, as shown in Figs. `1 and 3. On the side next to the nozzle. G the paint-nozzle has` an inclined or slightly-curved surface I', Fwhich preferably extends to a point almost Iat the center of the nozzle I. In line with `the upper end of this incline I' is provided the nozzle G is located thep -the opening, such as the'v slot I?, through which the paint or other liquid4may1ssue v,from they nozzle.` vwill'be clearly s'en in Fig. `3, this opening I2 is'fbelow the upper end of the incline I.' n the other or farther side of the opening I2 is -another incline I3,

which starts at the same level as theo suing I2 and is continued upward., referab y to a higher level than the upper evel of the incline I.

The upper edge I4 ofthe incline I" iss preferably horizontal, or about so.` The nozzle I is screwed or` otherwise fastened to the .end of an inclined tube J, which dip'sinto the receptacle A and passesA through the I cover C. Nuts J J2 may-be used for holding the nozzle I in Aproper relation to the .zle G. f 1

In Yorder that the paint or other liquid may be conveniently stirred, I provide a perforated plate K, secured to the bail L', Which is Y adapted to slide upfand down in the cover C,

the upper end L of the bail forming a handie.. ,e 'l

The air-jet from the nozzle G Will be delected upwardly by the incline I and 'will in'- duce a current of paint thrpugh the outlet vI2 of the nozzle I.' This stream of paint will IlO Z- then be struck directly by the blast of air and forciblythrown 'against the incline 13,-.so that the paint Will be subjected to a greater pressure, and therefore will be more minutely` subdivided by being forced against such u per incline I3.' I therefore secure a very e cient ato'rnizing of thespaint. At the same time any heavy particles which may not reach the' oint where the air-blast strikes the incline 3 Will gravitate back toward the Outlet I2 and Will thus get into the path of the induced current. In the form of nozzle shown in F1g. 4 the incline t is straight instead of curved, as in the form shown in Fig. 3.

In other respects both forms are alike.
